Chill Mike - it's all in your wording. Yes I read the whole posting and hence my comments. Not all responses have to be positive - a little constructive feedback is a good thing. I did not personally insult you in any way or use harsh language, so I'm not sure why you seem to be getting upset.

One of the unfortunste aspects of cyber-discussions is that when you hit "Reply", it looks as if you are speaking to a specific poster when you might not actually be. Also, of course, you can't 'hear' the tone of voice a poster is using and dry, printed words with no tonal inflection to inform them, can seem harsh when that was not the intent.

Finally, I guess I just reached the 'overload point'. A culmination of hearing from too many 'true' a-holes on too many forums (forae?)...not just photography.
